Any truth to this... anyone try it?

Taken from the Anarchist's Cookbook:

"Believe it or not, bananas do contain a small quantity of
_Musa Sapientum bananadine_, which is a mild, short-lasting
psychedelic. There are much easier ways of getting high, but
the great advantage to this method is that bananas are legal.

1) Obtain 15 lbs. of ripe yellow bananas.
2) Peel all 15 lbs. and eat the fruit. Save the peels.
3) With a sharp knife, scrape off the insides of the peels and
save the scraped material.
4) Put all of the scraped material in a large pot and add
water. Boil for three to four hours until it has attained a
solid paste consistency.
5) Spread this paste on cookie sheets, and dry in an over for
about 20 minutes to a half hour. This will result in a fine
black powder. Makes about one pound of bananadine powder.
Ususally one will feel the effects of bananadine after smoking
three or four cigarettes."

Also, this:

"Try this sometime when you are bored!

1) Take one pound of raw peanuts (not roasted!)

2) Shell them, saving the skins and discarding the shells.

3) Eat the nuts.

4) Grind up the skins and roll them into a cigarette, and smoke!

You'll have fun, believe me!"


Worth a try, I think, what do you think?
